5.0 out of 5 stars
VB .NET Quick Start with Excellent Examples, December 27, 2001
This review is from: Visual Basic .NET! I Didn't Know You Could Do That... (Paperback)
I have a little exposure with VB6 (3 weeks last year). I do mostly C++. This book is the best I found so far in terms of examples and cost. If you need a book to learn the differences between VB6 and VB .NET in a week with plenty of practical intermediate/advanced examples, this is the book. With the information I get from this book, I can understand the material from Microsoft's .NET jumpstart course with ease. The examples in this book are really remarkable and don't expect toy programs. If only WROX books are like this book, I will not need to spend so much time reading!

2.0 out of 5 stars
very confusing - some details are based on Beta-2, January 11, 2003

This review is from: Visual Basic .NET! I Didn't Know You Could Do That... (Paperback)
This book shouldn't be sold anymore because its based on the beta version of Visual Studio.NET (which the authors states in the introduction) - so some samples won't run without small modifications which is very confusing for beginners. And putting an ape on the cover isn't very approiate either. I like the authors other books 99 code samples for Visual Basic.NET much better.

The author looks intense, January 9, 2002
This review is from: Visual Basic .NET! I Didn't Know You Could Do That... (Paperback)
Is this cover along the lines of Wrox where the author/s are featured on the cover. I don't mind the look of this author, although he does look rather intense and he could do with a shave.
